Description:
Blücher et Wellington, Great Britain. Isn't this a superb medal? It tries to do something for everyone, and very nearly succeeds in doing it. It contains an interesting error though, one that might have been expected to be caught by contemporaries. Davoust (Davout) was bald and you can see that he apparently has donned a toupee for the honor of having his crotch crushed by Blücher's horse. He was known for wearing the wire spectacles that you can see.
